Know what to do

A single compass resting on an open palm, needle pointing steady toward one direction, drawn simply to show guidance sought and received.

Lord, in your mercy, please hear the prayers of your people as we call to you. Help us to see clearly and to know what we should do. Then give us the grace and power to do it faithfully. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

To this end, we always pray for you, that our God will count you worthy of His calling, and that He will powerfully fulfill your every good desire and work of faith,

2 Thessalonians 1:11 (BSB)
